Four months ago, South Korean golfer Kim Jae-hee's opportunity for a maiden Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour victory was snatched out of her hands.
She held the solo lead at the SOIL Championship on Jeju Island with a few holes remaining. But due to bad weather, she was unable to complete her final round and all scores were voided.
Compatriot Sung Yu-jin, the 54hole leader, was instead awarded the victory despite being out of contention when play was suspended. Kim, who had begun the day in second spot and one shot behind Sung, had to settle for another joint runner-up finish.
Kim's redemption finally arrived on March 10 in similar circumstances at the $1.1 million Hana Financial Group Singapore Women's Open.
